From the News and SuxtmiY GLOBE, Aug. 27, 1837. - - One of the most splendid discoveries oft he present age is now univer pally admitted, by the testimony of the most unquestionable authorities, to be GRINISTONE'S EVE SNUFF. This fine herbaceous compound far sur passes anything before offered to the world ; and from its salutary effects on those who habitually use it, i may be truly esteemed a national bless. ing. The time has been, when every third man you met in the streets, glared at one through the medium of spectacles, or protected his visual .tVgans by shades of various hues and shapes. Verily the past was a blinking generation ! We ask, is it so now ? Every one must empha tically answer, No !" what can this miraculous change be attri buted but to the immense consumption of Grimstone's Celebrated Snuff. which affords certain relief in every affection of the Eyes.

J. 6UTHRIE, Esq., F.R.S.—this eminent Surgeon strongly recom mends Grimstone's Eye Snuff' Penryn Arms Hotel, Bangor, 25th May, 1838. Sir,—From the great and signal benefit I have experienced from your invaluable Snuff; I conceive I should be doing an act of ingratitude to yourself as well as injustice to those suffering as I have, if I did not thus openly state for the s itisfaction of the Public that I have been for a long time past labouring under an almost total deprivation of Sight, so great as, except by the feel, incapable of knowing a shilling from a guinea. A gentleman who stopped at my house for a short time pitying my (as I imagined incurable) misfortune, kindly recommended me to try a small quantity of your discovery which he procured frotn an agent of yours in Dublin.

Yesterday morning, at ten o'clock, Mr. BAKER, the Coronet! and Jury, who have already been engaged seven days i n th e i n vestigation of the circumstances attending the deaths of the nine persons killed by the bursting of the boiler on board the Victoria Hull steam-ship, on the 14th of June last, resumed the inquiry at the Watermens' Arms Tavern, Lower Shad well. At eight o'clock last night, the evidence having been gone through, the Coroner read the whole of it that had been taken in the case. The reading of the evidence occupied up wards of three hours. THE VERDICT. The Jury retired at twelve o'clock to consider of their vet.- diet, and at half -past one o'clock the Coroner was informed that they had agreed ; and the Court having been re-opened, The CORONE k asked if the gentlemen were prepared to deliver their verdict? Mr. P. Mellish, the foreman, rose and said that he was never placed in a more difficult Lituation than he was that night. He had to contend with difficulties he never had to contend with before. He had now to declare the opinions of the Jury. He believed be spoke their feelings, when he said that they n ever saw a steamer fitted up with gr eater splendour and taste th an the Vi-toria, or with greater attention to the convenience of the passengers. He must however say, and he was delivering the unanimous opinion of the Jury, that they never saw a vessel in the River fitted up with so little regard to the comfort of the engineers and stokers who worked the engines, and in the place where they were employed ; in fact, it was a perfect pandemonium, at least such was his opinion. He never saw a place which realized his ideas of pandemonium so much before. The L Jury—lt is our opinion generally it is not a fit p lace for tue engineers and stokers. The Foreman continued—l will now deliver the verdict of the J ury- They consider that the death of Andrew Brown was accidentally occasioned by the explosion of the boiler on board the Victoria steam-vessel, on the 14th of June last. The Jury consider that the construction of the boilers was unsafe, the water-spaces too small, and the plates too thin. The Jury f urt h er cons id er , th a t the engineers having no im . mediate control over the safety-valve in the engine-room is highly reprehensible, and the Jury levy a deodand of 1,5001. upon the boiler and steam-engine of the Victoria. The Coroner said he should require the attendance of the witnesses and Jury on the other eight cases on Thursday next. He was had paid much obliged to them for the attention they ' • 1,,1 . et•1 to tlik . it: .klUiLl not expresz, The Court was then adjourned to Thursday, the 18th inst., , a hen the Jury will deliver their verdicts in the other cases, pro firms; AQUATICS. THAMES ROYAL YACHT CLUB.—GRAND SAILING MATCH.—The third, and. as we understood, the last match for the present smells afford Fsd by this popular club to such of its members as, being owners of yachts, are naturally anxious for opportunities of displaying their relative qualities as sailors, as well as of being successful candidates for the very handsome prizes in the shape of silver cups and covers which the liberality of the club is in the habit of offering for competition, took place yesterday, and perhaps a finer day for aquatic sports never dawned upon tar and canvas. The consequence was, that the whole tribe of that amphibious race of beings, whose lives are spent between London and Gravesend when dis. posed to try the water, and within a circle of ten miles from the Monu ment when their disposition tends landwards, were yesterday all afloat at an early hour. In spite, however, of the fineness of the day and the ge neral disposition to spend it in that cheerful mood evinced by young ducks and cabmen on the approach of wet weather, the chief business of the day, viz., the sailing match itself, was a lamentable failure in every respect. It was utterly devoid of interest, and no amusement was afforded by it, unless that could be called amusement which consisted in the inef. fectual struggles made by two inferior yachts, which never had a chance of winning, to catch a crack one, which, except for the first two minutes, as they say on the turf, " took the lead and kept it" throughout the race. The match was for a superb silver cup and cover, value 50 guineas, and we should have thought that so elegant an ornament for a citizen's side. board would have tempted at least half a dozen more of the members of the club to have entered their vessels, in the hope of having their healths drunk in claret from so tempting a goblet. Such, however, was not the case, and the fact is probably attributable to the knowledge of a circum. stance we will presently allude to. The start was from a flag-buoy of Greenwich Hospital, whence the yachts sailed to Gravesend, and then, after rounning the flag-boat stationed there, returned to Greenwich— the first arriving there winning the match. At ten o'clock the Venus steamer, which was engaged by the club for the accommodation of them selves and visitors to accompany the yachts to Gravesend and back, left London Bridge for the station at Greenwich ; and at twenty-six minutes past eleven the signal gun was fired, and the following vessels immediately hoisted sail and started : Yachts. Tons. Port. Owners. Distinguishingcolours Lady Louisa... 13 London... T. Smith, Esq Blue. • Petrel Ada Jane lB Ditto T.T. Hewes, Esq... Blue with red cross. The Petrel first got away, but was almost immediately passed by the Ada Jane, and very s ton afterwards the Lady Louisa also gave her the go-by to windward, and she at once showed that all her chance of winning the cup had gone for ever. Two circumstances, however, which occur red, removed from her the apparent impossibility of being successful under which her heavy sailing had placed her in the opinion of the all wise on these matters. The first of these circumstances we will here allude to in its proper place. It was that the Ada Jane sailed under a protest, her owner having made some alteration In her which rendered her above the proper tonnage, and consequently disqualified her from becoming the possessor of the prize—at least for the present. The yachts proceeded to Gravesend and rounded the 11.1 g-boat in the order in which we have before m mtioned. On their return, however,.be Lady Louisa was fast gaining upon the Ada Jane, and, in short, was on the point of passing her in Gravesend Reach, when her mast unfortunately snapped in two, owing to t he too great weight of canvass with which it was evi dently loaded. In this discouraging predicament she, of course, dropped astern, and was t a k en i n t ow b y t h e steamer. Thi s was the second cir cumstance which, by leaving the Petrel, the only remaining antagonist of the saucy Ada Jane, gave bet - a chance, though we confess but a lame one, of obtaining the prize, for at twelve minutes to six the saucy Jane in question passed the buoy at Greenwich, snd, several minutes after wards, the Petrel followed. Theowner of the former immediately claimed the prize, which, however, the Commodore (W. H. Harrison, Esq.) re fused to give up to him, in consequence of the protest which had been entered against his yacht at starting. Mr. Hewes, notwithstanding the fact of this protest being well founded, still contended that he was en titled to the cup, inasmuch as his vessel had been allowed to start. The members of the club present appeared to be divided in opinion upon the point, and it was ultimately left for the decision of their next monthly meeting, at which it will he determined whether the cup shalt be sailed for again, Mr. Hewes reducing his yacht within the proper tonnage, or whether the prize shall be awarded to the Petrel. To the decision of the club we leave the affair; at the same time we may be allowed to express a hope that another contest may take place for the prize, in order that the principle of delur optima may be acted upon, as well as that we may have another opportunity of spending a delightful day among these merry aquatics, and also of again recording our sense of the politeness and hos pitality which we have ever experienced at the hands of the Commodore and various members of this spirited club.

SCOTCH SEQUESTRATION. J. LANG, writer, Glasgow, Aug. 17 and 31, I Bull Inn, Glasgow. a t twelve, at the List night a Special Meeting of the above Asseciation was held in a room hi Exeter Hall, for the purpose of considering the present state of the Medical Profession in relation to the New Poor Law system. At Eight o'clock the Chair was taken, by Dr. WEBSTER, the President.—He said it was scarcely necessary for him t o s t ate th e purport o f t h e M eet i ng, or why it was they were called together at an extraordinary time—it was, however, fur the purpose of hearing . a Report read, , which emanate d f rom the Poor . Law Committee of the Council of the Association, who had been appointed for the purpos e of, and who had m o st assiduously inquired into, the evils of the medical systsm pursued by the Poor Law Commissioners and the Beards of Guerctians under them. That Association might be fairly called one founded upon the representative systere. They wial - .ed to see at the head of their profession a responsible and sleeeed governing hody in place of a great number of irresp•nisib , er.—( Hear, hear.) The Council which the Association had appointed thought it necessary to lay at all times I.el-ore the profession any matter affecting the profession, which they thought of im pottance, and they considered the Poor. law question, medi cally considered, as one of pnremount import:tom It was a question of the greatest importance, blast-nerds as its na tural tendency, according to the present system, was- to crush and ruin the profession. Censideiing, it so, the Council were anxious to lay before the profession generally, what Per liamentary steps they had taken, especially before the Com mittee appointed by the House or Commons to enquire into the working of the new Poor-laws. He would not detain them by enumerating the various and multiplied evils of the system—they had all felt them, and, therefore, it was unneces sary for him to detail them, but be must say that, in his con science, he believed that a s)stem mote ingeniously contrived to ruin the profession, could net be devked.—( Applause.) He would not enter into the question of its eff, , ets upon the poor, but he would say that the Council bad been actuated as much by a feeling for the interes's and welfare of the sick poor, as by any professional er personal feeling.—( Cheers.) He would now conclude by requesting the Secretary to read the Report, which had been pre{ ared. The Secretary then read a very voluminous Report, which detailed the transactions of the Council on this question. They had had communications with country associations, but had been greatly* disappointed at the silence and neglect of country practitioners, who were the fist to feel the evils of the system, and were the first to cry out; they. however, be lieved that they were coerced, or were afraid of offending the authorities under the new law. They had, however, collected much valuable information, and they traced the causes of the evils, which were degrading the profession, first, to the abmninable system of contracting by tender for the medical attendance upon the poor ; second, the attempt which had been, and was still being made, to get up medical secietin among all below the middle classes, as working independent labourers, mechanics, arti zans, and domestic servants. Under these societies it was proposed to allow the medical man for attendance, medicine, operations, and everything else, for a single man 3s. a year— (Laughter) —a man and his wife 4s a year—and 6d. a year additional for every child under 16 years of ege—( Laughter) —and, thirdly, the profession was much degraded and hurt by the introduction of many totally unqualified persons, as at tendants upon the sick poor. The medical clubs (it said) had been attempted to be got up in Southwark and Cambr rwell ; but by the readiness and unity of the practitioners in those neighbourhoods, they were defeated. It complained loudly of the manner in which the medical men were paid under the new law, and recommended that they should be remunerated by from 4 to 7 per cent. upon the poor's-rate, and that there should either be a medical commissioner or a medical board, to whom all complaints against the surgeon should be made, and to whom alone the of dismissal should bdre.g. The Report went on to recommend that the medical districts should be reduced to a sizc in which medical relief should be within reach of the ;poor; that the remuneration should be more proportionate to the services of the medical officers, and that the system of tender should be entirely abolished. The Report proceeded to mention, in terms of the highest eulogy, the ex ertions of Mr. Walley—( Loud cheering)—without whose persevering efforts the Parliamentary inquiry would never have been efficiently conducted. The Report concluded by con gratulating the Association on the present aspect of the Poor law medical question, and recommended the continuance of energetic and combined exertion.—( Loud cheering.) Dr. GPANVILLE rose to move that the Report be received and adopted. In doing so, he observed that it afforded evi dence of what might be eff,!eted, in a very sl ort space of time, by a small b o d y o f men resolutely combined for the abo lition of abuses.—(Continued cheers.) It nag almost incal culable the extent of mischief which was produced by the Poor-law medical arrangements, not only to the medical profession, but to the unhappy objects of the Legisla ture's pretended protection.—( Hear, hear.) He ended by in forming the meeting that the evidence before the Committee of the House of Commons on this question. was published at the Parliamentary Paper's Office, for Is. 7d. only. Mr. LAVIES seconded the motion, which was unanimously agreed to. - Dr. HULL (of Peckham) moved the second resolution—of thanks to Mr. Willey, M.P., for his persevering labours in the cause of Medical Reform.—(Cheers. ) Mr. .1. HOWELL seconded the resolution. He remarked that in the House of Legislature there were few persons tak ing an interest in medical affairs ; and long might Mr. Wakley remain in the House of Commons advocating the cause of jus tice, whether to the medical profession or to the public gene rally.—( Cheers). The resolution was carried amidst loud cheering. Mr. J. FILCHER moved a resolution of thanks to the Poor Law Committee of the British Medical Association, and to Mr. Furr, for his admirable digest of the evidence regarding the operation cf the Pocr Law Amendment Act, in respect to the medical question, and in arranging the statistical tables. for the reference of the House of Commcns, embracing every par ticular affecting the medical profession.—( Cheers.) Mr. G. EVANS seconded the resolution, and said that the medical profession had been degraded by the Poor law Commissioners ; and urged the necessity of union, on the part of the profession, to resist the attacks which were made upon them.--( Hear.) The Resolution having been carried unanimously, Mr. FURR returned thanks. Mr. C. BRADY moved the fourth Resolution—Thanks to the Poor-law Committee of the British Medical Association, and expressing the necessity of undiminished exertion. M. \V. HILLts, Esq., had much pleasure in seconding the motion. It might be said that the British Medical Associa tion was merely raising a factious opposition to the Bill of the Legislature, as expressed in the new Poor-law, but that such was not the case he would soon prove. He would nr tgo in:o the details of the general abuses, but a uald confine him self to the system of coLtract by tender, which had grown up cf cars.—( Hear.) That he considered as a most obnoxicus measure, and one which tended to degrade the profession more than any other, and he also considered it as very obnoxious to the interests of the poor themselves. There were cone in the profession who supported the degrad ing measure but those who had been instrumental in bringing it forward. It was very well to contract for any sort of manu factured article, or it was all very we ll th a t : h e arm y an d navy should be supplied by contract with beef or pork, but it was impossible to apply the same law or rule to gauge the reward for professional services. —( Hear, hear.) He wits fully per suaded that many poor persons had been deprived of their lives by the improper remedies applied to their cases by those unqualified persons who had been admitted to practice under the new system. If it was fair to apply the contract system to the medical profession, would it be unfair to apply it to the legal or the clerical.—( Hear, hear.) Well, then, suppose there were a vacancy on the bench in the Queen's Bench or Com mon Pleas, they ought to advertise for tenders, and then all might become judges ; and the same with a bishopric or an archbishopric—there again they might have a chance of put ting on the lawn sleeves.—( Laughter.) It might be said they were not qualified, but that was not a ease in point, for that was their complaint; the persons appointed to attend the sick poor were not qualified, and in numerous cases were never asked whether they were or not. Those of the medical profession were necessarily possessed of some intellect, but it was not at all necessary in the other two pro fessions—the large wig and the lawn sleeves sup plied their place, but in both those professions there were the sons, and the brothers, and other relations, of those in high places, and therefore they were protected.— ( Cheers.) The medical profession was not so favoured, and therefore they must make up for that disadvantage by unity amongst themselves. The Poor Law Commissioners said this system was adopted in order to find out what was the proper remuneration of the medical man. How was it they found out that they should receive 1,000/. 01 2,0001. a year, while to the medical officer, as well educated a man, they gave 101., 201., 301., and in some places where they wished to show mu nificence, they gave the enormous sum of 1001. It was urged that this was done on the grourd of economy. Did the experience of the past few years prove that economy had been obtained ? That false system of economy had induced the typhus fever, by which, during the last six months, thousands had fallen. The poor were not well fed, and there fore they were unable to withstand the attack. The fever was contagious ; hunger was not--and probably what huma nity had failed to procure, fear might accomplish. He trusted it would, and then it would prove a blessing to all. He cordially seconded the motion, which was then put and carried unanimously. Mr. FARR then communicated the following statistics to the meeting :—ln eight counties the average extent of the Medi cal Poor-la w R e li e f Di str i cts was 21 square miles; and in mman y ile s fromdist theictsmt,ldtei medical iaor officer.w ere Theat re munerated sometimes by salary—sometimes on the a per e c h ase eorr 14 system—and sometimes on the pauper schedule . ta D a distance medical offi o c f ers l w 2 one of which the average amountper case the medical districts Devon shire there were two medical districts sien wasjux ispo3scitt.io;ni.hythlnna other, 9s.
